CHAMPAGNE vISEYARD.

Very few people, even among those who ap
prsciate the quality and dneness OF the genuine
French Champagne wines have a correct idea of
the extreme care and solicitude with which the
vineyards are kept in the district OF Cham payne.
which undoubtedly Is one OF the richest ana
best cultivated parts Of the world. One of our
friends lately returned from France Rives III
eulogious report on the estate OF Messrs Bouche
MS 4 Co. Ut Marseuil-sur-sy this includes a
remarkable piece OF property named "Les
goisses," which can be shown to any foreigner
travelling through France, as an Illustration of
the ideal accomplishment OF Champagne yfne

with the beams OF the sun freely lsy1shing
from dawn to sunset their beneficial warmth
ON T., this vineyard seems TO cumulsts All
the qualities req uired for the prod ucton of per
feet grapes. Itssuriace soil gives the fruit the
dneness and bouquet, while the heat of the sun
Is scounterbaanced by the freshness constantly
drawn up from the lower ground by q network
OF roots. which spread themselves in bed of
chalk" There Is great deal OF this product in
the Bouche Sec Champagne, which explains its
peculiar fneness and aroma 90 much renowned

OF obtaining the wine coming from the Gois.

The Hot Springs star. (Hot Spings [Hot Springs], Dakota [Dakota Territory, i.e. S.D.]) 1886-189?, 1887-06-10

1t eve seems to be the disposition Of
our legislative bodies 10 take up the
time allotted for the passage Of whole
some laws for the people, in chickering's
upon questions that are not of the
slightest benefit only to few, whilst
laws tina. should be foremost and gene
rally circulated among the people are
left as a matter Of small importance.
The I'LL for the general publication of
last winters legislative cnactments
would have obviated the necessity of
placing the new laws in piecc-mcals
and through uncertain channels to the
people. AS it is we are compelled to
from time to time publish extracts from
the lately enacted laws for the cditica-
ton of the different officers to prevent
conf1iction.
1t seems to a man-up-a-tree that we
are all interested in the general and
local laws by which we are governed,
and every citizen is as much entitled
to become conversant with the laws of
this territory as a tabooed few who re.
ceive all the benefits. If the law was
more fully understood by the people
and less red tape there would be less
litigation. In order to substantiate
these few remarks, we refer tothe new

THE BOOM COMMENCED.

The tin district of Custer county
has, to a certain extent, been growing
in interest ever since its discovery in
proportion to the knowledge attained
in regard to this peculiar metal. 1t
has now assumed proportions Of Won
derful magnitude and has become an
established fact that the tin deposits of
the Black Hills have no equal for rich
ness and quantity. 1t has drawn the
attention Of commercial men far and
near to the magnitude of this mineral
deposit, and earnest attention is direct
ed from al quarters toward its devel-
opment. We clip from the Rapid City
Rep. of the End inst. the follow re-
port, which if true, will open up the
mines of Custer and Harney's Peak so
thoroughly that every shadow of a
doubt as to their richness and extent
will be dispelled.
Word reached this city yesterday
that James Wilson had been successful
in London in organizing a company
with a capital of S10,O00.O00 to devef-
OPP and work the many different loca-
tions he had previously bought and
bonded i'll this district. The telegram
received in this city last week to the
same effect is now confirmed. and it is
to be hoped that the tin interests will
be brought prominently before the pub
lie by the organization of MIR. Wilson'S
COMPANY.
